However this is a totally disappointing release with fatal encoding issues.
Macroblocking throughout the entire film. Grain moves in a swarm-like pattern. Visible in motion and even stronger when pausing.
This is the worst disc I’ve seen so far from Sony Pictures Classics. The disappointment is even greater considering the lack of extras with the film therefore receiving an entire BD-50 on its own.
MUBI releases a BD in August which is hopefully solid. I’ll sell this disc right away without watching the film.

Got my MUBI BD today and it’s a revelation compared to the SPC.
Fantastic encoding and all-around gorgeous to look at.
Thank you MUBI, this is a real treat of a physical media release. They‘ve really stepped up their game after having some disappointing early BD releases like Suspiria but now they‘ve become beautifully consistent. Aftersun also looks phenomenal.
If you can, please support their BDs. I wish they‘d do more and UHDs too.
